Unless your number is something like 0787 877 8787 (and a prize to the
first person to spot the allusion!)


Hmmm. I don't the allusion. Am I going to kick myself when someone explains
it? Is it a number that makes a word on a calculator display if you turn it
upside down - like 0553 or 77345.


You might (Live and) Kick(iing) yourself, but the number has a more
archaic roots than that. See my other (winning?) post.

I think yours works out to 20:10:19 God's own Mean Time. Provided that
these times are meaningful and trustworthy, i'm afraid YAR BOO SUCKS TO
YOU.
